VQ's love cold air too.....
Forced Induction cars aren't as sensitive to atmospheric conditions as naturally aspirated cars. That includes barometric pressure, altitude, and heat.

In fact, the NHRA correction factors are halved when applied to forced induction vehicles.

IDK i think that statement would be more true for a supercharged car over a turbo?
Even if im wrong, they are not "AS" sensitive, but nonetheless are still "somewhat" sensitive and therefore there would still be a performance correlation.

The performance difference from 77F to 54.5F temperature would be an improvement of 2.9 to 3.0%. That is also assuming that barometric pressure and humidity are the same. So if Edmunds got 0-60 in 5.5 secs I would assume a 0-60 in 5.3 secs at 54.5F.

Same torque more horsepower. Torque is good for launch but horsepower keeps you going. Hope that makes sense. And plus some other technology like swell and vvel. Makes a difference im sure.
